When to use a power of attorney?
A power of attorney can be used in different situations. For example, imagine that you cannot attend a certain location to sign a contract, but you have someone you trust. In this case, you can send a representative on your behalf as long as they have the authority to sign such a contract on your behalf.
Are there differences between powers of attorney?
Yes, powers of attorney can be either private or public.
A Private Power of Attorney is one that you can create yourself, defining in the body of the text what powers you intend to give and signing it.
A Public Power of Attorney is similar, but it must be issued by an Official Notary on paper and with a public seal of authenticity.

What is the benefit of powers of attorney with ENSPACE?
First and foremost, the main benefit is organizing powers within a company through validated documents and secure information about them.
As a company grows, it eventually becomes normal to have several attorneys with specific powers to manage small acts of that company.
This management model is more efficient as it prevents centralization in just one person, fostering a promising business environment.
Autonomy: As the business world is extremely dynamic, speed becomes an important factor, especially in negotiations where agility in signing and decision-making is crucial. With recorded information and accurate control of business documents, it is not necessary to wait for a specific person to be available just to sign and proceed with a negotiation.
